Title: Wheel bearings
Post by: flhtci2006 on June 23, 2020, 05:36:00 PM
What type of bearings are in the front and rear wheels, specifically Rover step thru?

According to a post on Electric Bike Review they are the cup and cone ball type.

Ryan,
Yes, I saw that. It seemed odd to me because the sealed "carriage" bearing I would think would be cheaper and quicker to assemble.  The reason I ask is because I  plan to removed, clean and regrease prior to bike assembly.  I don't have the bike yet but want to be prepared for when I do.  I want to make sure I have the tools I'll need.
